It was characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR, TGA and single-crystal X-ray crystallography. It crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/c with a = 5.546(6), b = 11.985(13), c = 9.952(11) ?, β = 97.522(17)°, V = 655.8(13) ?3, Z = 2, Dc = 1.682 g/cm3, μ(MoKa) = 0.46 mm–1 and F(000) = 340. 5009 reflections were measured and 2893 independent reflections(Rint = 0.051) were used for further refinement.

Two kinds of doped organic/inorganic hybrid nonlinear optical (NLO) materials containing NHA and DO3 were synthesized by Sol-Gel process. The preparation and properties of two NLO materials were studied and characterized by FTIR, 1H-NMR, UV-VIS, SEM, DSC and SHG measurements. The results show that the maximum doping amounts of NHA and DO3 in two doped hybrid NLO materials are 7.2(wt)% and 11.3(wt)% respectively, and the corresponding second-order NLO coefficients (d33 values) are 2.91×10 8esu and 6.14×10 8esu. Two doped NLO materials have relatively good RT stability, after 90 days at RT the d33 values can maintain about 85% of their initial values, but after 10h at 100℃ can only maintain about 50% of their initial values. In this report, the reasons for high-temperature instability of doped materials were discussed, and the possible improvements were also suggested.展开更多

Long-term stability of second harmonic coefficients was observed at room temperature for more than 1000 h.展开更多

A periodic modulation of the intensity of reflection high-energy electron diffraction (RHEED) in BaTiO3 and SrTiO3 layers was observed and attributed to the lattice-misfit-induced periodic variation of the terrace density in film surface. The relationship between the second-order nonlinear optical sus-ceptibilities and the superlattice structure was systematically studied. The experimental and theoretical fitting results indicate that the second-order nonlinear optical susceptibilities of BaTiO3/SrTiO3 superlattices were greatly enhanced with the maximum value being more than one order of magnitude larger than that of bulk BaTiO3 crystal. The mechanism of the enhancement of the second-order optical non-linearity was discussed by taking into account the stress-induced lattice distortion and polarization enhancement.展开更多

Based on the optimized structures, INDO/CI method was adopted to calculate the electronic spectra. Meanwhile, the second-order nonlinear optical (NLO) coefficients βμ were calculated with the sum-over-state (SOS) formula. The results show that when the number of glucosyl units was increased, |βμ| values of the barbituric and thiobarbituric acid derivatives were both enhanced, especially for thiobarbituric acid derivatives. It indicates that non-conjugated substituted group could also improve NLO properties of materials when the number of repeated units was increased. Additionally, the absorption bands appearing in UV area are consistent with the proper change of the number of glucosyl units, and consequently it can be concluded that the high transparencies of all systems were scarcely varied.展开更多

A periodic modulation of the intensity of reflection high-energy electron diffraction (RHEED) in BaTiO3 and SrTiO3 layers was observed and attributed to the lattice-misfit-induced periodic variation of the terrace density in film surface. The relationship between the second-order nonlinear optical sus-ceptibilities and the superlattice structure was systematically studied. The experimental and theoretical fitting results indicate that the second-order nonlinear optical susceptibilities of BaTiO3/SrTiO3 superlattices were greatly enhanced with the maximum value being more than one order of magnitude larger than that of bulk BaTiO3 crystal. The mechanism of the enhancement of the second-order optical non-linearity was discussed by taking into account the stress-induced lattice distortion and polarization enhancement.

文摘In this study,two new dendronized nonlinear optical(NLO)polymers were synthesized with high FTC chromophore loading density by introduction of high generation chromophore dendrons on the side chains.Due to their suitable molecular weights,both of them possessed good solubility in common solvents.They also inherited the advantages of dendrimers(large NLO coefficient),especially for PG2 whose NLO coefficient d33 value was as high as 282 pm·V^–1.Also,PG2 had a good temporal stability with 80%of its maximum value being retained at the temperature as high as 129℃.

文摘AMI semi-empirical method was used to optimize the barbituric acid derivatives substituted with glucosyl B1-5 (series B), and the thiobarbituric acid derivatives substituted with glucosyl T1-5 (series T). Based on the optimized structures, INDO/CI method was adopted to calculate the electronic spectra. Meanwhile, the second-order nonlinear optical (NLO) coefficients βμ were calculated with the sum-over-state (SOS) formula. The results show that when the number of glucosyl units was increased, |βμ| values of the barbituric and thiobarbituric acid derivatives were both enhanced, especially for thiobarbituric acid derivatives. It indicates that non-conjugated substituted group could also improve NLO properties of materials when the number of repeated units was increased. Additionally, the absorption bands appearing in UV area are consistent with the proper change of the number of glucosyl units, and consequently it can be concluded that the high transparencies of all systems were scarcely varied.

文摘Density flmctional theory(DFT)was employed to calculate the geometrical structures,UV-Vis absorption spectra and second-order nonlinear optical(NLO)properties of a family of iridium(Ⅲ)complexes,which possess of different cyclometallated ligands(C∧N)and ancillary ligands[pyridme-2-carboxylate(pic)].It was found that the mo-dification of the LUMO energy levels was achieved by changing pic ligands and the energy gaps between the HOMO and LUMO were notably increased or decreased.In addition,the degree of conjugation was significantly changed with the substituent groups varied,which led to that the first hyperpolarizabilityβcould be effectively modulated.Through the analysis of time-dependent DFT(TD-DFT)results,we predicted that these studied complexes withπ→π^*charge transfer was beneficial to the large second-order NLO properties.Therefore,we hope that these studied iridium(III)complexes can be considered as versatile second-order NLO materials.

文摘The second-order nonlinear optical(NLO)materials play an important role in the application and development of laser techniques.For various candidates,those in the middle infrared(MIR)region are far from the market’s requirement.Therefore,it is necessary to explore new ones with better performance.For their exploration,the inclusion of multiple anions in one structure has been proved to be a successful strategy.The NLO property contains several aspects,and different anions may contribute to different aspects.Therefore,the multiple anions’combination may give an opportunity to obtain NLO materials with desirable properties.Here,we make a short but clear summary on the MIR NLO-active chalcogenides and halides containing multiple anions,as most of them exhibit nice NLO performances.
